Designed by top teams at home and abroad, the train, with Oriental aesthetics, Tianfu culture, and a better life as its core concepts, has carefully crafted the first high-end tourist train in Southwest China. The car body design, themed as "The Rhythm of Mountains and Rivers", incorporates elements of Sichuan’s distinctive mountains such as Xiling Snow Mountain, flowing like musical notes on the side of the train, presenting a magnificent view of "The Scenic Landscape of Shu Sichuan".
